Chapter 659: Showcase
"Naturally, since we are here, it means we agree with the idea," said Yu Li after Gao Shengyan.
She wasn't alone. Yun Lai and Yu Xuexian also shared the same thoughts.
"The four most famous factions in the Golden Land are the Prodigy Hall led by King Tianyu, the Clearheart Society led by Shen Duxiu, the Worldbreaker Peak led by Wang Fuyun, and the Stormwind Tower led by Liu Suxin.
"Among them, Wang Fuyun and Liu Suxin are humans, while King Tianyu belongs to the Divine Race, and Shen Duxiu is a Unique Lifeform. Between King Tianyu and Shen Duxiu, one only accepts groups opposing the Human Race, while the other only takes in a select few races. If we have to join a faction, our only choices are the Worldbreaker Peak and Stormwind Tower, but..."
Yu Li explained her understanding of the external situation. "Liu Suxin, like us, is a genius in the Eternal Ascent of Humanity Initiative. As for Wang Fuyun, he is the direct heir of the Yun family from the Myriad Worlds Commerce.
"Their talent and abilities might not surpass ours by much, but they managed to gather a group due to their advantage of having entered earlier. Yet, after thousands of stellar years, they still haven't found a way to escape from the Heavenly Prison. If we follow them, we might not find a way out. Instead of placing our hopes in others, it's better to rely on ourselves."
Her words gained the approval of many. Everyone who entered the Eternal Ascent of Humanity Initiative was a peerless genius of their respective star clusters. Each of them was proud and arrogant. They looked down on others and believed themselves to be the center of the world. They wholeheartedly believed they could do anything as long as they set their minds to it.
Li Pin was the best example of this.
Yu Li glanced at the group and said, "According to my investigations, Liu Suxin's Stormwind Tower has over three hundred members. Since the numbers fluctuate constantly, I can only come up with an estimate. Among these three hundred, only a dozen are official members of the Eternal Ascent of Humanity Initiative.
"On the other hand, the twenty-nine of us are all from the Eternal Ascent of Humanity Initiative. As long as we develop patiently and help each other, in at most a thousand years, our strength will surpass that of Stormwind Tower. By then, every single one of us will be a founding elder of this new faction."
At this moment, a man who had always been by Gao Shengyan's side said, "Everyone trapped here is a genius. That’s precisely why the Black Abyss Highlord set cultivation tasks that push us to our limits. No matter how arrogant we are, when facing a great Highlord who assigned these tasks, we have to restrain ourselves and give our full effort.
“If we don't want to end up like other geniuses, or even like the Prodigies who were exiled to the Silver Land or the Exile Zone to become providers, unity is indeed the only way."
